Another tidbit about what is happening with Jabil & Sanmina:

Cisco getting whacked over inventory build concerns. Apparently Cisco 10-Q release last week showed pretty strong sequential inventory build. Spooked some people.

Sanmina and Jabil, who have big hunks of business w/ Cisco are selling off in response to the news. My guess is the concern is misguided, but don't follow Cisco so don't know if inventory build is a big deal or not. Have a hard time believing the inventory build wouldn't be purposeful. Cisco has strong track record & has historically done a good job matching inventory with customer needs. I was also under impression that Jabil volume was build to ship not build to stock.

My opinion.
